So what's the message there ... some random kid who had nothing done to do with the original bullying gives an eye message to the bully ... thus provoking the bully to start torturing that kid, too. I'm sure they'd justify this by saying, "we're teaching cooperative delegating" Good stuff here … it’s just total bullshit what they’re teaching … worse still, a few years ago there was a kid in my child’s class who was 9 (while everyone else was either 7 or 8 … this kid had repeated a grade) and was double the size of everyone in the class and instead of doing his own “eye messages” he sent other kids to do it for him.
